Summary:To save time, improve flexibility and guarantee accuracy of the navigation system of the mobile robots, a multifunction landmark and a new navigation algorithm are proposed in this paper. With the new algorithm and landmark the mobile robots can be located by only a single landmark, and can be navigated in a large area by serial landmarks. The simple configuration and the convenient material of the landmark increased the system's flexibility and decreased the complexity of the algorithm. From the experimental results it can be concluded that the navigation system has fast navigation speed and high navigation accuracy.
